Riley

What is the best way to find the puppy will fit your family? My cousin went about the wrong way; they purchased their dog from a "Puppy Mill" in the midwest sight unseen! They sent their money and picked up this adorable dachsund appropriately named Riley. He lives "the life of Riley". In Las Vegas you take your chances; and in life there is serendipity. But veterinarians emphasize that a family pet is a serious commitment and should be approached with careful consideration .
Ideally, you should at least check out the parents of the puppy so that you can get an idea of what the puppy's temperament will be.
There are tests for dysplacia ( a genetic malformation of joints and bones), PRA, progressive retinal atrophy, a condition leading to blindness, congenital heart defects, etc. All of these conditions can be ruled out before you get "stuck" with a puppy you're in love with.
